What every church will always need

The need for talented, vigorous leaders in the church cannot be overemphasized. Such times demand active service of men and women who are guided by and devoted to Jesus Christ.

With more than one million copies sold, Spiritual Leadership stands as a proven classic for developing such leadership. J. Oswald Sanders, a Christian leader for nearly 70 years and author of more than 40 books, presents the key principles of leadership in both the temporal and spiritual realms. He illustrates his points with examples from Scripture and biographies of eminent men of God, such as Moses, Nehemiah, the apostle Paul, David Livingstone, Charles Spurgeon, and others.

Featured topics include:

  • The cost of leadership
  • The responsibility of leadership
  • Tests of leadership
  • The qualities and criteria of leadership
  • The art of reproducing leaders
  • The one indispensable requirement of leadership

Sanders holds that even natural leadership qualities are God-given, and their true effectiveness can only be reached when they are used to the glory of God. Let this classic be your guide for leadership, and watch how God works through you to do great things for His glory.

J. Oswald Sanders’ Spiritual Leadership: Principles of Excellence for Every Believer is a timeless guide that explores the biblical foundations of true leadership, emphasizing character, humility, and dependence on God rather than worldly ambition. Sanders argues that spiritual leadership is not about status or authority but about servanthood, self-discipline, and a willingness to sacrifice for others. Drawing from Scripture and the lives of great Christian leaders, he outlines essential qualities such as vision, wisdom, and integrity while warning against the dangers of pride and complacency. The book challenges believers at all levels to pursue excellence in leadership by cultivating a deep spiritual life, prioritizing prayer, and seeking God’s guidance in every decision. Through practical insights and spiritual wisdom, Sanders provides a roadmap for anyone who desires to lead with Christlike character, whether in the church, workplace, or home.

“Spiritual Leadership” offers excellent insights not only into what is involved in becoming a leader in Christian circles, but also what is possible in being a Christian. Anyone considering Christian service, whether organized or just serving others, should listen to or read this book several times, at regular intervals.
